QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 29, 2011 -> 11:57 AM) So, lets say Pence goes to ATL for some pitching. We then have: Phils Red Sox Reds in the mix for Quentin. The Reds have some catching prospects that interest me. Did you get a reply from your text? Because I don't remember seeing Cincinnati mentioned this entire thread.

if you're going to do that, why not try to trade for an actual 3B

QUOTE (Stan Bahnsen @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 05:51 PM) Yes. Ozzie eliminated the save possibility for Santos in the Friday game at Cleveland and in one of the games at KC. Santos earned a save in both Cleveland games.

Nice game from Danks. Damn, winning that game last night would have been too sweet.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 04:03 PM) Where'd the PTBL news come from? http://toronto.bluejays.mlb.com/news/artic...or&c_id=tor

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 03:55 PM) What's the scoop on Stewart? Was he one of their top prospects? Some say so, but he's 24 and in AA. Somebody said he becomes our #1 prospect.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 03:50 PM) Wait....no f***ing way. 1, this deal actually happened? And 2, it's a 3 way where the White Sox DON'T get Rasmus??? It was not a 3 way.

St. Louis is also receiving 3 PTBNL or future cash considerations.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 10:58 AM) Teahen is included. Didn't see his name is the latest tweets.

Jackson for Frasor doesn't open a roster spot for DeAza.

In this preseason poll, in which 65 soxtalkers voted, only 3 people thought the Sox would win less less than 88 games. Over 75% thought the team would win more than 90 games. 80% thought they would win the division and only 1 thought they would finish lower than second place. I know every poster did not vote, but it seems the consensus of soxtalk was that KW put a quality team together.

Time for a double in the gap Gordon.

Nice, Alexei!

QUOTE (Real @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 08:28 PM) Really? read cards boards, they all would prefer rasmus in CF over jay, but his issues are costing him playing time Read a Sox board, they would all prefer Viciedo, but like Cards fans, they don't make the decisions.

QUOTE (Real @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 08:20 PM) he isnt a long term solution from what ive read That team has a lot of question marks for next year.

QUOTE (Real @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 08:13 PM) replacement in CF for rasmus is my guess I believe that would be Jon Jay.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 08:08 PM) They've already got a different kid that LaRussa likes playing there. Jay? Yes, but they will need a backup.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 07:58 PM) so maybe de Aza is going to be traded? If STL trades Rasmus, they will need another OF.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 07:44 PM) If a trade was in progress, the person beig traded wouldn't be on the field tonight. Maybe he's not.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

QUOTE (PlaySumFnJurny @ Jul 25, 2011 -> 10:08 AM) There once was a man from Detroit whose maneuvers were very adroit 'though he could not pitch worth a son of a b**** his own junk he could really exploit. Nice, can you do a haiku now?

QUOTE (JPN366 @ Jul 24, 2011 -> 10:21 PM) He already platoons with Daniel Descalso. No he doesn't. Today is the second game since July first Freese hasn't started, and all but one of those starts has been at 3rd base. Descalso has played more SS than anywhere else since Freese came off the DL.

QUOTE (JPN366 @ Jul 24, 2011 -> 03:36 PM) Could the Cards be sold on adding Teahen to the deal? He might thrive under La Russa and in that offense. They really don't have an everyday third basemen. Do you think they will bench Freese for Teahen?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 24, 2011 -> 12:35 PM) Fangraphs actually thinks Rasmus is a below average CF, slightly worse than Rios. I guess I am wrong and adding Rasmus would not improve our OF defense.
